- Intervention effect Initial mowing from July 15 to August 15 gave the greatest cumulative dry matter yield.
- Intervention effect Initial mowing from July 15 to August 15 gave the greatest pre-mowing crude protein yield.
- Intervention effect Initial mowing from July 15 to August 15 gave the greatest cumulative crude protein yield.
- Intervention effect Early initial mowing increased crude protein concentration.
- Intervention effect Early initial mowing lowered fiber concentrations.
- Intervention effect Three annual mowings increased cumulative crude protein yield compared with less frequent mowing.
- Intervention effect More than three mowings did not significantly affect accumulated crude protein yield.
